Remarks

This enumeration designates the two stereo views as "frame 0" and "frame 1". The LeftViewFrame0 parameter of the VideoProcessorSetStreamStereoFormat method specifies which view is the left view, and which is the right view.

For packed formats, if the source rectangle clips part of the surface, the driver interprets the rectangle in logical coordinates relative to the stereo view, rather than absolute pixel coordinates. The result is that frame 0 and frame 1 are clipped proportionately.

To query whether the device supports stereo 3D video, call ID3D11VideoProcessorEnumerator::GetVideoProcessorCaps and check for the D3D11_VIDEO_PROCESSOR_FEATURE_CAPS_STEREO flag in the FeatureCaps member of the D3D11_VIDEO_PROCESSOR_CAPS structure. If this capability flag is present, it means that the driver supports all of the stereo formats that are not listed as optional. To find out which optional formats are supported, call GetVideoProcessorCaps and check the StereoCaps member of the structure.
